Why does the pianos register include more than 7 octaves?

In fact, the reason that the piano has 88 keys (or more than 7 octaves) is because that's the range that was finalized by the American Steinway piano makers in the early 20th Century. Until then, the piano's register had been growing constantly from the original 5 octaves (49 keys, F through F) of Mozart's pianos to 5.5 octaves (56 keys, F to high C) in Beethoven's required register, to 6 octaves (61 keys, F to high F) which were called for by Schubert, to 7 octaves (85 keys, A through high A), which is what most composers of the greatest piano music would have been content with. The Steinway manufacturers figured the highest note on the piano ought to be C rather than A, so they extended the range with three more keys in the upper register. It was there that the range of the modern piano would be finalized. Older pianos with 85 keys are still in existence though, especially in Europe. The Bösendorfer piano makers still make their "Imperial Grand" pianos with 100 keys, extending the range to over 8 octaves, from low C to D above that of the modern Steinway. Few composers have ever actually written for such a register, and as the extra notes are simply not popular enough to merit their being included in the standard piano, they remain only on the Bösendorfer Imperial Grand.

What are john newlands triads?

John Dalton was the first person to begin ordering the elements. He did this according to atomic mass. John Newlands developed this idea further and noticed that there were similarities in ever eighth element, he called this "the law of octaves'. Newlands called each group (column) of three elements a 'triad'

What periodic trends did Mendeleev organize his periodic table by Atomic number Atomic mass Octaves Triads First ionization energy?

In 1869, Mendeleev organized his periodic table by increasing atomic mass (atomic weight), using what is called the "law of octaves," by which every 8th element in the sequence shared similar properties. This was first observed by John Newlands in his element table around 1863.


What is the repeating pattern that occurs left and right?

If you mean the repeating pattern from left to right that occurs in the Periodic Table of the Elements, it is called the Law of Octaves. This is because the pattern of periodicity occurs in groups of eight.


How did john newlands discover the periodic table?

John Newlands was actually the first person to make a periodic table. He devised a periodic table arranged according to elements' atomic weights. He also arranged the elements into seven different groups. Newlands compared these groups to octaves in music.

What is the name of the scientist who first developed the periodic table?

You can mainly blame the Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleyev (or Mendeleev, or Mendeleyef - there are many different spellings of his name.)Back in the early 19th century, a German chemist named Johann Dobereiner noticed that some of the elements fitted naturally into groups of three, called triads, with similar chemical and physical properties. The English chemist John Newlands was the first to notice that if you arranged the elements in order of atomic mass, they seemed to have similar physical and chemical properties every eight elements. He called this the law of octaves, because the way in which these properties repeated every eight elements was similar to the way the same note was repeated every eight notes (octave) on a piano. However, at times his scheme broke down, and he realised there was something wrong with it, abandoning the octave idea. His fellow chemists mocked him for it - someone once said he'd have better luck listing the elements in alphabetical order and looking for patterns!It was Mendeleyev who in 1859 took Newlands' idea of looking for repeated properuties in the elements, and decided to create a table of elements in increasing atomic mass. Unlike Newlands, he left gaps where the pattern did not fit, and predicted new elements would be discovered, predicting their properties from the table. These elements were subsequently discovered, and since then, Mendeleyev's periodic table has been the most useful chart in chemistry.
